Tht death of Dr. McLauchlin, for 20 years of the Second Presbyterian Church of Norfolk and one of Nor folk’s most beloved citizens, shortly before noon last Thursday was the re suit of a heart attack. He was in his seventieth year. Death overtook him in the down town office of a physician where he had gone after being stricken with a sharp pain in his side as he was walk ing down the street. He lay down in the physician’s office but before an investigation of the cause of his ail ment could be made he died. The cause of death was given as angina pectoris. Dr. iVIcLauchlin’s health had been regarded as good, though he had been stricken several years ago with illness which had left hi;, physical strength slightly impaired.

I The Kiwanis Club of .Aberdeen had a birthday party on Wednesday, and seventy-five memlKjrs and former members assembled in the Church of Wide Fellowship in Southern Pines for the most enthusiastic gathering the organization has had in many a long day. Kiwanis is ten years old in the Sandhills, founded in Aberdeen in December, 1922. Since that time it has enrolled 190 members, and its career has been one of dtstinguished service to the community. On the program at Wednesday’s “Old Home Day” party were all the former presidents of the club who could be present. Robert N. Page, sec ond president, spoke of the splendid accomplishments of the organization during its existence, cs;.ecially empha sizing its efforts toward the building of the Moore County Hospital. Talbot Johnson, third to head the organiza tion, told of the early day^s, how the \ club came to start in the community, ■ of how it came to be a community organization rather than just Aber-1 deen. A group from Aberdeen peti tioned Kiwanis International for a charter, but found twenty members were needed for a start, which made it necessary to go into Southern Pines, Pinel'.urst and the adjacent towns to find enough men interested in the idea. He told of the election of Dr. W. C. Mudgett as the first president i at a meeting held in the Mid-Pines | Club.

Governor Franklin D, Roosevelt, President-elect, was given a Democratic Senate and House to aid him in his program. Roosevelt carried at least 42 states, possibly more when final returns are in. President Hoover appeared the winner in Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Vermont at time of going to press, but the vote was close in Connecticut, New Hampshire and Vermont and might be in the Demo cratic column on the final count. J. C. B. Ehringhaus was elected Governor of North Carolina to succeed Governor Gardner. Robert R. Rey nolds w-as chosen United States Sena tor by a wide margin over Jake New ell, Republican. This Eighth Congres sional district gave its Congressman, Walter Lambeth, another term by a sizeable margin.
